I have had several requests lately to post some new pics. I have no idea why--it's only been a year since I last posted :-)
Just a quick update--we are all doing great. Molly has had 3 surgeries in the last year, and she is DONE with surgeries for a long while. The boys are growing up so fast. Molly is 2, and all of it! She is such a mess, we call her "Molly-Mess" and Steve tells her often "no messes" because that is all she does! She is really a sweet child, and we are so blessed to have her in our life! Paul will be 8 next week--where have the last 8 years gone. I keep thinking that in 8 more years he will be of driving age--that's a crazy thought! We are homeschooling him still, he is technically in the 2nd grade, but is doing mostly 3rd grade work. He is such a smart young man, and he truly is becoming a young man! Zach is 4 and is still my sweet, cuddly, lovable, CRAZY Zachary. He is such a sweet boy but sometimes the sweetness gets trapped inside and he can't get it out! He is going to preschool 1/2 days this year and LOVES it. He has the same teacher Paul had for preschool, and I love her. Zach is learning so much and continually amazes me. He has struggled with so many things in his short life, and is finally overcoming so many of these challenges! He has made such great strides in the last couple of months. I am so pleased with how much he has grown and what a great little boy he is becoming. Overall the three get along really well. Paul gets a little irritated with his younger siblings sometimes, but he really loves them and wouldn't have life any other way. Molly and Zach love their oldest brother and think he hung the moon (most of the time) They also truly love each other and love to play (and make messes) together. God has truly blessed us with 3 great kids! I am often tired in the middle of this "child-raising" era but I thank God on a daily basis for giving us such a wonderful family to raise! The pics are from a recent trip to Destin with some great friends, and one of Paul, with his cousin Samantha, building Legos--his FAVORITE thing to do. Check out the pic of Molly and Jenda (our friends little girl adopted from Guatamala) they were our "International SwimSuit Models"
